For more than 40 years, OSI has successfully operated across global markets, fostering partnerships founded on trust, innovation and sustainable growth. We have long recognized the strategic importance and exceptional opportunities the Japanese market provides, and we look forward to continuing to work closely with national and local government and community leaders.
We prioritize food safety, team-member safety and customer service, and are always looking for ways to support the growth of our team members and customers. We are excited about the future with OBF and look to continue the storied history of the business with Ehime and Yawatahama prefectures.
